do you think America is more safe after the hanging of Saddam?

Answer 1

no, but ask bush sr. if he feels safer now.

Answer 2

America's relative safety has little to nothing to do with Saddam Hussein and quite frankly never did.

America's safety , I assume you mean from a terrorist attack, is for the most part unchanged from September 10, 2001. Let us remember some facts. There weren't 19 hijackers from Mexico. These guys didn't learn to fly aircraft in the Iraq Flight School for terrorist.

The republicans love to say well, there hasn't been an attack since 9/11. You are right and I am willing to give Bush , his administration and oh hell republicans in general full credit. They have kept us safe for almost 6 years. Well, the Japanese attacked in1941 so by that logic FDR and democrats kept us safe for 52years (terrorist attacked the WTC in 1993).

We look safer, we look more diligent at airports, we have given up a few unimportant civil rights, but the fact of the matter is security at airports are breached all the time and a baseball player lost his life when his plane crashed in the side of a building flying up the east side air corridor (you know where the united nations is).

We are as safe as we ever were here in America. The only people whose safety has anything to do with Saddam Hussein are my soldiers in Iraq and Iraqi civilians

Answer 3

I don't so there are alot more people out there that want to destroy America.
Take China I'm sure if they ever get the chance thay'll attack.
Or North Korea. no I don;t think America is really safe at this point in time,.
However I Believe That we should take a closer look at Switzerland As we all now know they are no longer a neutral country. They are now a fully armed, milliterized nation.
O yes my friends I think our biggest concern come's from the Swiss. After all we don't know which side they are on. Take for exanple all the good items we can get out of surplus stores that the swiss no longer use you have to wonder what kind of weapon's and supplie's that they have now that we don't know about!
It's just something to think about.

Answer 4

No, that was never the point, Saddam being hung for USA safety. The point was so the innocent Iraq people could be safe from his horrific crimes against them, not USA. The man was pure evil, as evidence in his life shows. The Iraqi people have won a victory in finally seeing this evil tyrant receive justice, according to their countries laws. He had a fair trial, and a fair death penalty, according to Iraqi Law. I have always felt safe, since America has the best fighting forces in the world, not just because they are well trained, but because they OWN the Heart of FREEDOM!

Answer 5

Well I don't know. My initial answer is No because I don't think he was really a threat to US.

...But if I was once a close ally of the US. Who had been helped to power by the US. Who had my troops trained free of charge (in terrorist tactics) by the US. And also been supplied with chemical, biological and conventional weapons by the US. AND then they turned on me and invaded my country whilst denying the US involvement in the atrocities that were perpetrated then I reckon I'd be way pis$ed off!....So maybe America is more safe?!?

Answer 6

I'm Andy in London.

I don't think that his death makes the slightest bit of difference to America.

Unfortunately, America is no longer the good guy and will get targeted by more and more people. It is no longer the policemen of the world. However, it's people, seem unwilling to accept that this is a widely held view of foes and allies, alike. It is certainly the view of the vast majority of Brits, even though we remain your strong allies.

From outside the States, America is seen as a bully. It began an illegal war, drummed up by Bush, his aides and Tony Blair. How do these guys remain in office?

Answer 7

Not really.

Because, despite any arguments that it was an Iraqi court and the Iraqi government, not the coalition, that decided the verdict and sentence, there will be many Sunnis who will consider that the US is 'responsible' for both.

And since Al-Qa'ida is a militant Sunni organisation, whose stated objectives are to eliminate foreign influence in Muslim countries, I doubt that will help things, do you?

.

Answer 8

Not that simple.

Saddam is irrelevant to the equation.

What matters is the installation of democracy within the time bomb of the middle east.

As more countries fall to demcoracy ,those such as Iran will be more and more isolated,ultimately leading ,hopefully to a peaceful or otherwise collapse of rogue state regimes.

The execution of saddam is a symbolic signal to Iraq that there is no going back.Only forward,like it or not.

Of course the left will cover their eyes and plug their ears to rational argument as usual.They will ignore the middle easetrn wars,the savagery and oppression of their regimes and degradation of women and instead focus on bashing bush because its trendy.

Answer 9

No, Saddam was just a figurehead as are all these rulers. There will be thousands of others waiting to take his place. He's just another nutcase that's been removed from power. Just look at the size of his family for a start, those faulty genes have got to go somewhere.

Answer 10

How can they be? Other threats come up to replace what they get rid of. They have tightened up on security and this will make a difference rather then go out and attack

Answer 11

No, but i don't think that was the point in hanging him! I'm pretty sure that was justice for all the family members who had loved ones murdered under his control.
